If none of the standard layout managers let you achieve what you want in an efficient way, you can just write your own layout manager. This is actually what you end up having to do anyway if you are going to have a UI that works correctly (for any different screen size, for changes to the screen decorations like an IME being displayed, etc), but it is actually probably a lot easier to do this correctly by just writing your own layout manager than using AbsoluteLayout.
